Hotel Vatluna

Breakfast was good. Too far from everything

Less steps to pool. Better lighting so you could read. Reading light didn't work

The pool was nice and property was located in nice small town

The food in restaurant was not really good, from my own experience it was without taste. The property need one more service worker while we were waiting only for water 20 min.

Views are stunning. Nice clean bedroom. Fridge.Parking facility. Great pool. Nice outside area with lovely views. Outside warm shower.Quiet and tranquil location.Rooms are clean and tidy and we had a great terrace with stunning views

No kettle. A major disappointment for my girlfriend who is addicted to tea before bed and in the morning. They didn’t have any upon asking either. Pool area could do with a daily sweep around and the leaves removed. I did it missed on the last day, which wasn’t an issue. Also animal faeces on the side not cleaned, as no daily clean up.Only a minor issue but had to knock a point off. Just attention to detail.Staff in the restaurant- although non offensive, they just didn’t come across as friendly, especially compared to the staff in the local bar and the one other restaurant who were super friendly and all gave a good vibe.It is quite remote, one other restaurant in the village and one bar. But both of these were excellent , but just be aware, it may not suit everyone.

The view was absolutely stunning, the room was very comfortable and clean, we had dinner at the hotel restaurant downstairs and I can strongly recommend delicious pasta with cinta senese. The staff were helpful and, as we arrived quite late, the self-check in option was perfect.

Excellent location in a tiny Tuscan village. Great views on the countryside and sea in the distance. Rooms clean.

Limited staff availability for check-in time. Original booking through another well-know travel app had been cancelled by hotel (no reason given). Rebooked via Booking at an increased price. One room booked appeared to show the availability of a double bed and a single bed but in reality only a double bed present.

Friendly, helpful staff, spectacular location which would have had amazing views were it not for the unusually wet weather.

The room was clean. Young lady in restaurant and maid who cleaned our room very helpful and nice.

They did not mention when booking that after 7:00 check in you were on your own with instructions on how to get in hotel.Person on WhatsApp who we were communicating with hung up on us and then would not answer phone when we called asking for help when we couldn't find the place. We finally did. Once in the hotel young lady in restaurant was very helpful. She did not work for hotel, I think. Also was never told password for wifi was on key chain. Next day when reception Person saw us at restaurant, never acknowledged us at all.

I had a great stay at Hotel Vatluna!First of all the staff is amazing. They prepared handmade decorations in my room because it was my girlfriend's and my anniversary and it was super sweet! They are also very warm and welcoming, we had amazing chats with them in the morning at breakfast. The location is also amazing. The view from the window/balcony/pool is unbelievable and the little town the hotel is located in is really enchanting. It's a bit up in the hills, so it's only reachable via car (that I know of), so be prepared to drive small curvy little Italian roads to get to it. But definitely worth it. It's also pretty close to the sea and sea towns (Castiglione della Pescaia, Punta Ala) and beautiful countryside (Siena, Montepulciano, Volterra).We had a great stay and I'd come back :)

We stayed here for two nights. The checking-in process was fast as it worked online before our arrival. By the time we arrived, the lobby staff had already left, but we received all the necessary information via a WhatsApp message, and the key was left in the lobby. Our room was spotless, charming and stylish, and had a fantastic land view. The beds and the pillows were really comfortable. The pool and its area were also OK. Parking was included in the price, and upon arrival, we also received a remote control for the car park gate. The breakfast satisfied all of our needs in variety and quality and was served by a lovely old but very fit lady called Monica. We met every morning and got into a conversation very quickly. Monica warmly welcomed us and kept her eyes on what to bring and how to pamper our needs or favour while smiling and singing quietly. The pies served were her homemade pies and were really very delicious. She introduced the view we had from the breakfast area. She also talked about herself and how she sees the world, her art pieces exhibited in the breakfast area. Monica is definitely the heart of the place, and we felt she was like our lovely grandmother. At first, we supposed that Vetulonia was a tiny place, even smaller than a village, just some houses, and there was nothing to do there at all. But we found a community here. There is a pub in the village centre where all the local people come together, talk and have fun in the evenings on the main street; in the village, there is a restaurant, a museum and churches, as well. There are even festivals in the village. This place is the island of tranquillity, and if you are curious about the real life of rural Italian people, just come here and look.

Mind your legs near the beds in the room. The corners of the beds are really sharp.

Very friendly staff, helped to book places at a nearby beach.Room very large and nice looking.Very nice restaurant.

Unfortunately we had not well checked the location and to reach the hotel there is a long and winding road (not optimal when some persons are car-sick !) so we had to shorten our stay.

absolutely stunning setting. staff were so helpful and kind. restaurant with the best view and lovely food. would 100% stay again next time in Tuscany

nothing!

The location is amazing with a lovely pool and helpful staff.

Breakfast was poor

Hotel in a very good location. People working in the hotel very nice, always smiling and helpful. Tasty breakfast also restaurant serving regional dishes very good. Beautiful room with big tarrace and fantastic view. It's great that there was a private closed parking for hotel guests.

The hotel is in the town of Vetulonia which is on the top of a mountain. The view is of course tremendous. You need a car to get there. The village is small and quaint, with a couple of bars and restaurants. We used this stay as a base for our daily travels to different villages on the coast.

The wifi is completely unreliable. To be honest it hardly works. I don't think it is the hotel's fault, bad wifi is an issue all over Tuscany, and then being on the top of a mountain in a rural village doesn't help.

The apartment in two levels was great. The views from the swimming pool are spectacular. Personal was very kind. The village is peaceful and have great views over the valley.

Parking for the car is 300m away from the apartment. The swimming pool is in other building, have to cross the street.

This is a hidden secret, we can't wait to visit again, the staff were Simply The Best, the views from the back were amazing, I wish we had spent more time at this Hotel, the location was ideal for visit all the Tuscan sites. Well done to the owner and the staff

Nothing keep doing what you are doing and keep it the way it is.

The thing I liked most was the woman who served breakfast. She was so incredibly nice helping everyone at breakfast and always with a smile. The view was also amazing

the bathroom was very tiny

The location was unique. The dining room had a fantastic view.

Beautiful place in beautiful town

Would like kettle with some tea and coffee in the room

Pool and huge room
